It generally involves removing the interior door panel to access the mirror mounting screws and electrical connectors.

The paint of this part is Blue Mauritius (color code KPKD) and shows slight signs of wear. The electrical functions may stop working if wiring is damaged or connectors corroded, so it’s important to inspect these during replacement.
